UK PM Starmer hits back against Musk attacks on child grooming gangs: 'Lies and misinformation'
Fox News
U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is pushing back against attacks from Elon Musk and conservatives in his own country about the handling of the child grooming scandal.
The U.K. grooming scandal, where it was revealed that gangs of predominantly South Asian or British Pakistani men had exploited and abused children for decades in towns in northern England, resurfaced last week amid fresh calls for a national inquiry.

Previous reports in towns like Rotherham and Telford had found evidence of horrific crimes against children over decades and that authorities had either suppressed information or had concerns about stoking racism. It is frequently cited as a failure of multiculturalism and the impact of mass immigration.
